      Last night our champion hackers got a new update infrastructure landed into Firefox 0.9 branch builds and set up the new server and the new server-side code, moving away from the slow Java based stuff to some much faster not-Java based stuff. Grab today's branch builds and go hammer on this new stuff. Update should be working better and everything should be faster, hopefully.

        It looks like they do check your system to provide the relevant download link. Interestingly, changing your UA doesn't affect this. The relevant code is this:
        function getPlatform()
        {
        if (navigator.platform.indexOf("Win32") != -1)
        return "Windows";
        else if (navigator.platform.indexOf("Linux") != -1)
        return "Linux";
        else if (navigator.userAgent.indexOf("Mac OS X") != -1)
        return "MacOSX";
        else if (navigator.platform.indexOf("Mac") != -1)
        return "Mac";
        return "Other";
        }
        I guess navigator.platform is independent of UA string. What doesn't make sense is why they use userAgent for OSX.

        What also doesn't make sense is why they used client-side Javascript for the rotating screenshot image, when they're already doing server-side scripting to include the latest RSS information, or why they have the screenshot as the background image for a DIV instead of an inline IMG.

        It's still a lovely layout though.

      Frankly, I am not much worried about that, because I am sure the distros will take care of packaging it nicely to avoid these kinds of problems.

      What worries me though is that very old and critical bugs like Bug 115174 are not considered important enough as to be release blockers. For the lazy to look this up, this bug manifests in realoading a dynamically generated page in certain cases, which may result in double-charging your credit card when you have just made a purchase and simply want to save your receipt. This bug is present in both Mozilla and Firefox and has been an issue since 2002!

      I have been using Mozilla and Firefox exclusively for the past couple of years and have to say that this is a PITA. I got used to it and know which sites I regularly visit are problematic and how to get around it (save as text or print to file). But a lot of users might get hit by this bug if Firefox becomes more widespread and they would rightfully be pissed.

      Another problem I have is that since about version 1.3 (or earlier?), Mozilla, and later Firefox, have been unstable and crashing a lot (e.g. once or twice a week under heavy load). I don't know is this is a Linux-only issue (I only use Red Hat 9 and Fedora core 2), but they seem to have a memory leak and that's not good if it creeps into the 1.0 release. I would gladly submit a bug report for this if I only knew how to reproduce it...

    Insult to injury was when typing in passwords to my Novell server, the new find bar proudly displayed my password in plain view. Thank the same $deity no one was around, and my monitor faces a wall.

    Why didn't they just add a Clippy type character that can speak through the voice software in windows:
    "It looks like you are typing in "$password" as your password, would you like some help typing in your passwords?"

    Whoever thought that find bar up deserves 10 lashes with a cat5 o' 9 tails.

    The tabs need an selected state, right now if I click on 'Products" it takes me there but when I go into a subpage there's no indication that I'm still in the Products section.

    Also, a lot of pages like Module Owners are still pretty nasty.

    Nice work though, it's always nice to see more standards compliant websites that actually look good.

  • Thunderbird integration? (Score:3, Insightful)

    Does anyone know how well Firefox integrates with Thunderbird? Specifically, if I click on a "mailto" link in Firefox, will it pull up Thuderbird without any custom configuration (assuming Thunderbird is installed)?

    Last I looked into this, Firefox and Thunderbird would not work together like this "out of the box". This was a real bummer, and it made me wonder if Firefox wasn't being targeted a little too much at the geek community. Compared to the simple integration of IE and Outlook Express, the Firefox/Thunderbird integration was really clumsy.

    (On a side note, it kinda irritates me that Firefox is being pushed so hard over Mozilla. I've had a few clients download Firefox (thinking it was a Mozilla update), and then wonder why they couldn't get to their email program anymore when it replaced all of the Mozilla icons...)

    It looks great. Awesome. Great new site.

    Expect lets make it more clear that Moz is free. "Free Download" makes me think of a demo, or a trial, or the __download__ is free but might cost more later.

    It should say "x is a FREE product. Free to own and use forever."

    Like the topic says, in IE I get 'Error: Object Expected'. If the site is broken in the browser people are going to be using to look at the site for the first time, what are people going to think about the browser Mozilla wants you to use?
